Option 2 : Using various railway time-tables, surveys published in newspapers etc.

Data is a collection of numbers gathered to give some information. Data handling means collecting the set of data and presenting it in a different form. Data is a collection of numerical figures that represents a particular kind of information. The collection of observations that are gathered initially is called the raw data. Data can be in any form. It may be words, numbers, measurements, descriptions, or observations. 

Why data handling topic becomes more effective when taught by real-life examples

  • As it goes beyond the textbook students feel connected.
  • Students connect their real-life experiences of tables, pictographs, etc.
  • Students remain active throughout the topic as it seems to be familiar to them due to the usage of real-life examples.
  • Railway timetables, students' examination timetables, restaurant menu cards, surveys in the newspapers, and many others can be used.

​Hence Using various railway timetables, surveys published in newspapers, etc can direct students to students to appreciate the use of Data Handling in daily life for organizing, representing, and interpreting information.
